Cheers Ron, yep I'll be there!
I'm not into this gluing bits together, do you think anyone will notice if I leave the reins off?

That's why I paint flats....very little gluing of small parts required.
See you there Ron, looking forward to it!

Following some trials and tribulations with the tack which was down to mine own inexperience with 54mm mounted figs and not the kit itself I think I'm back on track with this.
I managed to scrape bits of paint here and there in my clumsy attempts to attach the reins etc. so I need to touch those up and then get on with the shading and highlighting.

 

[megroot]

nice work. Looking forward to the final result.

Thank you Marc, I'm taking this slow and steady so you might have to wait longer than usual.

 

[Dan Morton]

Looks great! When completed, would it be possible to see slightly larger photos? Your lighting is excellent in the above photos, Roger!

All the best,
Dan

Thanks Dan, yes when it's finished I'll attempt better pics.

Great progress on this super figure Roger.
The lance held across to the left hand side of the rearing horse is a master stroke of sculpting.
Well done Mate you have now mastered every shape and size.
All the best
Keith

 

[ChaosCossack]

Looks fantastic Roger... The blue looks great as does the canvass (?) cover on the cap.

Never fear, you're not the only one who struggles with 54mm horse tack

Colin

 

[billyturnip]

Keith, Colin, thanks very much fella's. I think the hardest part is over, it should be plain sailing from now on.....hopefully.

Cheers Richie. I'm indulging in a bit of flat action this evening but rumours are rife.
